Wow nearly 3000 still underway in the core. Looove!

Evanston ridge NW has 3 rental buildings under construction. 114 units in each. Building 1 is starting to be occupied now

For now I've left off neighborhoods that are not quite completely built out yet. I might do a separate list for all multi-family in u/c neighborhoods, it's just hard to keep to track of the ones in the new neighborhoods.

Evanston is 99% built out. This was the last parcel besides a small townhouse project down the road

 

[badc0ffee]

My understanding is that's a greenfield development, which isn't (wasn't in the past?) tracked in this thread.

 

[Chinook Arch]

The development in Evanston would be greenfield. Anything built that isn’t replacing land already used is generally considered greenfield, though under that definition it would also include places like U/D.

The city added 30,000 people last year. 8000 units in 3 years is not going to be enough.

Keep in mind this list is only units being built in established areas. I didn't include Greenfield development as there are too many and too hard to keep track of. Either way, the totals for all housing units u/c this year are still too low. Last year the city grew by 49K, and there were 17,306 units started. Not near enough for the growth and we saw it with sharp drop in vacancies and houses supply on the real estate market. So far this year 6867 units were started in in the first 5 months (Jan-May) and population growth for Calgary (going by provincial numbers) are looking like they might even be higher than last year.

Calgary grew by 49k last year. Agree about the 8000 units. It’s not going to be enough.

I think Canada needs to seriously consider reducing its immigration targets. Not enough homes are being built and not enough doctors and nurses are being recruited to accommodate for newcomers. Immigration is essential but these ideologically driven targets of approx. half a million immigrants a year is dangerous for the well-being of our country. Everything should be done in moderation. As a nation, we've always talked about replacing our aging population to prevent economic harm but mass immigration with a lack of development in housing, healthcare, infrastructure, etc. is leading to much worse social and economic challenges IMO. A 1 bedroom junkie-looking apartment is now renting for over $1400 in most parts of our city and it's only gonna get worse.

If you think this is bad, wait to you see a country contracting as the labour force shrinks.

We have the ability to build more housing. A lot more. That municipalities don't even seem to be trying to use market mechanisms they have at their disposal to do so is mind boggling. It is like they have given up. They could also step up on the non-market side too. That apartment building by Attainable Homes -- what is the barrier that is stopping them from doing 5 projects a year instead of 1 every 5 years if the projects cover their costs? What is stopping them from doing the same for rentals and flipping the buildings when complete?

We have a huge failure of vision on housing.

 

[maestro]

Flipping a completed building is an exiting strategy. 100,000 units is $40 billion upfront. That's a lot of venture capital needed to be directed into real estate development. If the intent is to flip a rental property than one usually needs to flip the rental property before seeking investment in the next project.

These figures should only go up with 49,000 people moving to Calgary. In two to three years, Urbanwarrior will be dumbfounded that 3000 units under construction in the core excited him.

Isn't a major complaint of the Canadian economy the fact that too much capital goes to real estate already, causing difficulty for small businesses to grow? Seems like this would just be even more of the same, with the same complaints.
